UK: Muslim migrant gets 9 years for joining jihad terror group

“Somali Migrant to UK Gets Nine Years for Joining Islamic Terror Group Al-Shabaab,” by Michelle Moons, Breitbart, January 31, 2016:

A U.S. judge sentenced 26-year-old Madhi Hashi — a one time Somali migrant to the United Kingdom — to nine years on Friday for joining Islamic terrorist organization al-Shabaab in Somalia.

Between December 2009 and August 2012 Hashi was a member of al-Shabaab, supporting the group’s “violent extremist agenda” according to the United States Attorney’s Office.

He and two citizens of Sweden left Somalia to travel to Yemen with the intention of joining al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula according to prosecutors cited in Reuters. The three terrorists were intercepted and apprehended in August 2012 while passing through Djibouti thus preventing completion of the journey. Hash was deported to the U.S. in November 2012.

Hashi first came to the United Kingdom with his family when he was five years old according to the DailyMail. CNN wrote that the family was “fleeing the civil was in Somalia.” Hashi’s family has attempted to claim that U.K. intelligence agency MI5 harassed him to join the organization. The organization CAGE has defended Hashi. CAGE advocates for the closure of Guantanamo Bay and has welcomed the release of its prisoners. In 2012 The United Kingdom revoked his citizenship as he faced Islamic terrorism allegations.

“This defendant left his family and his adopted home in the United Kingdom behind so he could offer himself in support of al-Shabaab, a violent terrorist organization that has demonstrated its capabilities and motives in numerous terrorist attacks and that has publicly called for attacks against the United States,” U.S. Attorney Capers said according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Eastern District of New York.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office stated that al-Shabaab denotes men such as Hashi as “foreign fighters.” Al-Shabaab has recruited such individuals to live, train and often fight alongside native Somali fighters.

The USAO listed the value of such foreign fighters provided to al-Shabaab:

For example, al-Shabaab frequently made Western foreign fighters the face of its fund-raising and propaganda efforts as part of a broader strategy of emphasizing that the conflict in Somalia was part of a global jihad aimed at creating an Islamic caliphate. In addition, al-Shabaab assesses that Westerners have the potential to more easily cross certain international borders. Because al-Shabaab frequently employs suicide bombings, as it did in the Kampala, Uganda, in 2010 resulting in 74 deaths, freedom of travel was particularly crucial to al-Shabaab’s external terror operations.

“Hashi travelled to Somalia to join and fight on behalf of al-Shabaab in their foreign terrorist fighter ranks,” said Assistant Attorney General Carlin.

During his time in Somalia Hashi spent time with well-known jihadist Omar Hammami during his time with al-Shabaab. Hammami grew up in Alabama and died in a gun battle in 2013. He converted to Islam in his teens after a trip to his father’s home country of Syria….

You wrote: “I certainly hope he’s kicked out and not allowed back in ever…”

Unlikely. He will probably be allowed to stay in the United Kingdom, and the UK political and economic establishment will probably built him a new toilet so that he can pray towards Mecca from his prison cell in comfort while dreaming of and planning the grand future of Sharia for the British Isles.

This “Mohammedan Migrant” must have been reading the Quran and Muhammad’s Sunnah “a little too closely” and he ended up in jail for trying to commit jihad mass murder for Islam and the implementation of Sharia law. Not that this anything to do with Islam or anything..

We ex-Muslims living with Islam’s formal and informal death penalty for apostasy know that Mohammedanism is a complete fraud.

Here is a recent statement from a group of Bangladeshi apostates living in the UK explaining the reasons why they have abandoned Islam:

“One who claims to be a messenger of God is expected to live a saintly life. He must not be given to lust, he must not be a sexual pervert, and he must not be a rapist, a highway robber, a war criminal, a mass murderer or an assassin. One who claims to be a messenger of God must have a superior character. He must stand above the vices of the people of his time. Yet Muhammad’s life is that of a gangster godfather. He raided merchant caravans, looted innocent people, massacred entire male populations and enslaved the women and children. He raped the women captured in war after killing their husbands and told his followers that it is okay to have sex with their captives (Qur’an 33:50). He assassinated those who criticized him and executed them when he came to power and became de facto despot of Arabia. Muhammad was bereft of human compassion. He was an obsessed man with his dreams of grandiosity and could not forgive those who stood in his way…

The statement continues,

Muhammad was a narcissist, like Hitler, Saddam or Stalin. He was astute and knew how to manipulate people, but his emotional intelligence was less evolved than that of a 6-year-old child. He simply could not feel the pain of others. He brutally massacred thousands of innocent people and pillaged their wealth. His ambitions were big and as a narcissist he honestly believed he is entitled to do as he pleased and commit all sorts of crimes and his evil deeds are justified.”

The UK and the USA must lead the way by creating a protocol to DEPROGRAM MUSLIMS RIGHT OUT OF ISLAM.

Muslim fanatics must be subjected to films, videos, readings, pictures, lectures and debates that definitively prove that Islam is false. With that complete demolition of Islam teachings from every perspective (proved by exams and written essays), former Muslim inmates will be released only when they can memorize enormous quantities of arguments against Islam and then teach them to other inmates.

When these apostates are released, their mastery of these critiques of Islam will not permit them to return to a life of jihad.

Mortimer, You are right.
This is the only way to successfully destroy the cancer of Islam. There is no moderate Islam. It cannot be reformed, modernized or civilized. Left alone, it will only continue to metastasize. Those who present themselves as moderates are in fact either involved in deception or are MINO’s (Muslim In Name Only).

to Mad Max – I’m having a hard time understanding why Hashi was extradited to Manhattan USA criminal court to stand trial, not a military court, as might be anticipated, because “The U.S. Attorney’s Office stated that al-Shabaab denotes men such as Hashi as “foreign fighters.” Hashi sounds like a Quantanimo transplant. I’d like to better understand the protocol in deciding where this case was ultimately heard.

Obama’s policy of trying such individuals in U S Criminal Court, besides being wrong protocol in my view, is bad also because it creates potential political problems with accompanying violence in the local community, and it lends a comforting “normalcy” to terrorist trials..

Al-Shabaab wouldn’t be where they are now with out the Somali diaspora support. This is getting bad by the day, someone need to stop this people, they are not proper refugees they are criminals but who is going to stop them? I don’t know who? the organisation CAGE are not going to stop them, their families are not, Imams or community is not going to stop them.

Great job’Why isn’t the bastard back in Somalia deported and dumped
Why is it the UK taxpayer must fund the pig’s food and holiday in prison where he can bend over and raise his ass to f’ng mecca five times a day – and probably pretend to get a degree insouciance to fuck up the west
The hard working British man must fund these excesses by the government
